Default Cost of medicals is this about right?

Just contacted one of the places to do medicals for visa in Prague.

They said it would be 55 pounds (told me in Czech koruna but converted it online). This is for medical and xray and bloods!!

Sounds very cheap! Said kids medicals would be cheaper.

Medical stuff is cheaper here, but this seams very cheap. This is authorised hospital on the immigration website. So must be right.

How much is it in England as had originally considered getting them done there but dont think they could match this price.

It would be cheaper for those of us in the UK to fly to Prague, have meds done, take a weeks holiday, and fly back than to pay for them in the UK! Well, maybe not, but you get the picture...

Hi!

Sorry to jump on this thread, makes interesting reading.

We live in Manchester and just wondered who you went to see for your medicals at such a good price. Hopefully we will be front loading ours later this year.

Good luck with you voyage!

Thanks

Who me ?
St.John street and saw a Dr Million.
It didn't take as long as expected although had a moment when both boys demanded a poo at the same time
I am now sporting a nasty bruise where blood was taken but I liked his non-PC manner and he was relaxed about kids.
